Sex Education 's Gillian Anderson has spoken out about her decision to stop wearing bras as they're "too uncomfortable."
The actress, who recently played Margaret Thatcher in Netflix's The Crown, spoke candidly during an Instagram Q&A, after being asked what her go-to lockdown outfit was. She confessed, " I've gotten so lazy and I don't wear a bra anymore."
I mean, has anyone actually wore a bra since the start of lockdown back in March 2020?
Gillian continued, "I can't wear a bra. I can't. I'm sorry, there's no... I don't care if my breasts reach my belly button. I'm not wearing a bra anymore. It's just too f***ing uncomfortable."
We hear that.
It seems Gillian's anti-bra rhetoric resonated with her fans (including us), as one shared a clip of the video to TikTok with the caption, "Anyways Gillian says to free the nipple! as she should."
One TikTok user commented their support, writing, "Yassss I haven't worn one in four - five years now!!!" while another added, "I stopped wearing mine 50 years ago [...] those things had to have been invented by a man!"
Incidentally, the first bra was thought to have been invented by a woman (!) called Mary Phelps, whose bra was created entirely out of handkerchiefs. That actually sounds quite comfy?
Anyway, if you can't get enough of Gillian Anderson spilling home truths about bras, make sure you catch up with Sex Education, in which Gillian plays a brutally honest sex therapist called Jean Milburn. We wonder what Jean thinks of bras...
